The brainchild of high school friends Luke Burbank and Jen Andrews, Too Beautiful
to Live is a simple show about simple things— about personal triumphs and
personal foibles; about tragedy and thrills. With a Seinfeld-esc\ue dialogue, Luke
and Jen reflect on life and everything that is wholly unimportant. Their debut year,
2008, charts Too Beautiful to Live's evolution into something great.

Luke Burbank
Burbank began his career in radio by pinch hitting across a variety of shows and
genres, working either as a producer or as on-air talent. His work touched a
number of shows, including The Conversation, Rewind, and Day to Day. He later
became a reporter for NPR before starring as a regular panelist on the comedy
show Wait Wait... Don't Tell Me! After a stint on The Bryant Park Project Burbank
returned to Seattle to begin work on Too Beautiful to Live.
Jen Andrews
Jen Andrews served as producer for a variety of shows at KIRO before becoming
executive producer of Too Beautiful to Live. The show marked the reunion of
Burbank and Andrews, who had known each other since childhood. Andrews left
the show for a time after its cancellation from radio and subsequent transition to
the podcast format, but soon after rejoined Burbank as he broadcast from his
home, "Burbank Studios."
Sean DeTore
Sean DeTore worked at KIRO-FM as a radio engineer. With a penchant for aged
audio media like cassette tapes and vinyl records, DeTore was beloved by listeners
for his eccentricities and liveliness. After KIRO cancelled Too Beautiful to Live,
DeTore continued to appear, albeit intermittently, on TBTL's podcast incarnation.
